injuries caused by holding the racket too much...?

hi all! i learned the correct way to grip the racket about 4 months ago...and during the holidays ( oct - nov )i played 3-4 times a week...and in result my finger seem to had a bump (at the ring and index finger ) it don't hurt but is irritating ...and around the nail of my the ring and index finger will seem to hurt ( like getting squzzed too long) ...why does this happen?

haha no laa lin dan style i don't dare use xD! my grip is RSL hi com grip i think used for about 2monhts still looks and feels ok....does the size of the grip matter? my hand is ...er...medium -- big and my i have 2 badminton grip 1 his G5 ( ithink smallest size of grip) and the other is a G5 but wrap with a veryyy fat grip both oso same grip....so should i change to a smaller grip a? what grip good a
?

i think it might be the size of the grip, or the actual grip itself. Some people don't like grooves or ridges, and prefer smooth grip. Some people the other way. Factor in the size of the grip that they need as well. Good luck!

Theres a thread(old...really old) on holding your racket using your pinky and maybe ring finger. Try it out its really good. I started off with it tho, never knew other people had used it before... That way you can use half a grip like lin dan ...well thats what i do
